Simply Brilliant!

Today I had the chance to model and review some amazing garments from the UK and US based companies Simply Yours and Simply Be!

These amazing stores carry everything a huge variety of products from fashion, shoes, accessories and more but in this post I will be showing some of the range from shapewear to bras.

Because I have readers in many countries I will list the link for the UK site and the US site under the items.

For Australians who are wanting to pick up a few items there are many fantastic postage forwarding sites on the net that for a fee will give you an address to enter into the check out and forward on packages from stores that usually would not ship down here. Some even set up payment through paypal if you can't use your credit card. For UK shops see - My-Uk-Mail and UK Brands Worldwide. For US - MyUS, USmail1 and US2Me.

So today we packed our bags and drove down to my family farm to shoot some great images of these lovely pieces. Mother Nature was nice enough not to make it rain giving us just enough time to make the most of the location. My photographer for the day the super talented Katherine Davis who I've wanted to work with so long was an absolutely pleasure to work with!

I'm wearing a size a UK16 in all bottoms and a 38DD UK in bras everything is a perfect fit.

Gok Wan'a Balconette Sassy Slip - £28.00 (UK only) This fits like a dream and holds you in tight. I like my bra's slightly more padded/push up but this has great support and the garters will look amazing with thigh highs. All Gok Wan bra's come with extra straps.

Gok Non-Padded Long Line Bra- £22.40 with matching Deep Brief £9.00 (UK only) by far my favorite of the lot. The high waist on the brief is perfect for high waist skirts and the bra is longer than usual giving a little more back and side coverage. Its the perfect set!

Gok Wan's Balconette Banger Booster - £33.00 with matching Slicker Knicker £11.00 (UK Only) Wearing this i can honestly say I feel a little like a sex kitten. The shorts come in mid waist so there might be a little over hang but there are also a high pair online. These are so good at holding you as they have plastic boning and power mesh.

Naturally Close Control Body - Standard Length US Site - $58.00 UK Site - £32.00 I'm not sure if I'm wearing the standard or longer legnth but I think it is a little short for my torso. This is so comfortable though and the lace is so soft and pretty. With all the pieces above these can be converted into a halter which is great for summer dresses. I would have liked a little more push up in this style though, so I will look into some inserts.

I don't suppose you could do a post on shapewear for specific garments - e.g. the best shapewear for under a pencil skirt? I have some lovely new ones for work and I have the Evans black control slip, but I'd like to know any other options - particularly with garter straps... I'm no good at this foundation garment lark

I am really surprised that I have not spotted you already! You are one of the women from which the rest could follow your example. Your female curves look so awesome! I also believe that women must have curves and you count from now to my big idols! Carry on! Wow wow wow!!!

You look amazing in everything, and with your tats and red hair girl you are EVERYTHING! So fabulous. I only wish they made more cute things like this in KK cups. I wonder why they offer these things in the UK but in the US its like people like me don't exist,thank God for the internet. Love from America,thanks for sharing!
